I. 
DEFECTIVE 
NEGATIVES. 
By  following  closely  the  foregoing  directions,  the novice can make seventy-five" 
per 
cent., 
or 
upwards,  of 
good: 
negatives.  Sometim'es,  however,  the 
cfire~tions 
are 
not
, followed, 
and 
failures  result . 
. ' 
To 
forewarn 
the 
Kodaker 
is  to  forearm  him, 
and 
we  therefore  describe 
the: 
common  causes  of  failure. 
UND£R-£XPOSUR£. 
Caused  by  making  snap  shots  indoors, 
or 
m  the  shade, 
or 
when  the  light  is 
weak,  late  in  the  day;  by  closing  the  lens  too  soon 
on 
time exposures, 
or 
the 
use  of  i  small  stop 
in 
tIle' 
len~ 
when  making  snap  shots. 
(The 
A 
Kodak 
requires  no  stops.) 
Under-exposUl:e 
is 
evidenced 
by 
slowness 
in 
"the 
app"earance
' 
of 
t):le 
image 
in 
developmept, 
and 
the 
absence 
of 
detail 
in 
the 
shadows. 
In 
under-exposures 
the 
sky 
appears 
black, 
in 
development 
and 
the 
rest 
of 
the 
negative 
remains 
white, 
with 
no 
detail.
